Wednesday 19th June is National Cycle On Wednesday so we are asking that as many cycle to school as they can. Cycle safely!!!
We had beautiful weather in June and took a lot of our lessons outside! We looked at pointillism in Art this month, and created our own paintings in this style.
The wind kept blowing our paintings away but it was fun and we got the job done – eventually!
This year, we went on our turas scoile to Dublin zoo. Many of us got very little sleep the night before, because we were so excited!!
Here are some photos of us on the bus.
Here we are at the petting farm. We saw pigs, goats, chickens and sheep there.
We spent some time looking at the elephants.
Dominic’s aunt Mel works as a zoo keeper, and was kind enough to let us get up close to the giraffes. We learned loads of interesting facts about giraffes from her, including the fact that they love spinach!
Here we are looking at the gorillas. We got a bit of a fright when they banged on the window though!
The children’s behaviour on the school tour was outstanding. The teachers were so proud of them!
We went outside for quite a few lessons during May as the weather was lovely. Here you can see us carrying out a Maths lesson. We were comparing the weight of various different items, making estimates and then getting an exact weight.
We also made our own jigsaw puzzles this month, as we were looking at construction in Art. We chose a simple design, some were abstract and some were pictures, and coloured them in.
Some of us chose to stick on materials with different textures. This made our puzzles interesting, but difficult to cut out!
Aidan made a highly detailed jigsaw and laminated it.
